HOW YOUR LANDSCAPE DESIGN IDEAS
BECOME A REALITY

Over the years, we have refined our process which enables us to provide beautiful landscape designs, source the necessary skilled trades, materials and of course all of the necessary greenery in a very efficient manner. Our process allows us to complete projects large and small without delays. From our first meeting and throughout the entire project, your will appreciate our efficiency and the skills and quality workmanship of our partners.

Our Landscape Design Process

Onsite Discovery Meeting

Discovery Meeting

The first very important step of our process is the discovery meeting where we meet with you on-site to discuss your ideas. Meeting with you on-site also allows us to evaluate the space and share ideas about how to best achieve your goals.

Initial Designs

Initial Designs

In the initial design plan stage of our process,  we will prepare initial drawings and plans. These drawings are a starting point that will allow you to visualize our ideas and make any adjustments you like to get closer to a final plan.

The Final Design Plans

Final Designs

In the final designs stage of our process we will prepare plans and life-like renderings that provide a detailed visual of what your spaces will look like when complete. We also share these plans with our partner trades so that we can build a detailed quote for you.

Onsite Project Management

Project Management

In the project management stage of our process we coordinate closely with our partner trades and communicate with you regularly to assure that the transition of your spaces go exactly as planned and your vision becomes a reality.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN STYLES

Our landscape design creativity and experience can be tailored to any design style preference. Our landscape designers and landscape architects always give the proper amount of attention to features and landscapes that are designed to last in Florida’s climate, but the style of your outdoor space’s new structures and landscaping are entirely up to you. Style can be applied to outdoor bars and kitchens, seating, hardscapes, pots and containers, pool finish color, pool waterline tile, and of course plant and tree selections. The following are some of the more common design style preferences we are asked to follow but again, our landscape designs will be driven by your preferences and goals.

Tropical Landscape Design by Cascade Outdoor Design

Tropical
Landscape Design

Suitable mainly for the South Florida area, the tropical landscape design style makes use of different types of tropical palms and large plants balanced with tropical flowering varieties such as bird of paradise and other colorful plants. We can bring a portion of the tropical feel to our colder areas with frost and freezing temperatures but we have to be careful with tree and plant selections.

Modern | Minimalist
Landscape Design

The goal of modern, minimalist landscape design is open, uncluttered spaces that feature clean lines, a monochromatic or earth tone color palette, structural and potted plants. Structural features such as attached covered porches and patios, and unattached structures such as bars, dining and relaxing areas that follow the same simple, clean and relaxing designs.

Native Florida
Landscape Design

Focused on conservation and natural beauty, native landscape design utilizes Florida’s indigenous plants, (specific to the region of course). The use of indigenous trees, plants and foliage focuses on the natural beauty of the area and also tends to reduce maintenance. Layering and spacing are key elements in this design style and help to create a more natural appearance.

Woodland
Landscape Design

Woodland landscape designs emulate nature and often require less maintenance than more manicured landscape styles. Layers are a common aspect of woodland outdoor designs and offer informal arrangements of shrubs, smaller trees such as dogwood or crabapple trees all backed by the higher canopy. Other common features include narrow pathways and conversation areas. Woodland paths are usually gravel or mulch but planks can be a good option for areas that are commonly damp. A secluded conversation and seating area with a fire feature can make for a wonderful and comfortable space to relax with family and friends. The woodland landscape design style replicates the appearance and atmosphere of nature and delivers relaxing and peaceful outdoor spaces.

CUSTOM POOL DESIGN

Here in Florida, it is common for homes to have a swimming pool and for homeowners to add a custom swimming pool when they purchase a new home or have a custom home built.

We have extensive experience in designing custom swimming pools because a large percentage of our landscape design projects include them. Our custom pool designs often include features such as beach entries and tanning ledges, spas, fire and water features, water falls and scuppers, bubblers and a variety of other options that result in beautiful custom swimming pools that become the centerpiece of our landscape designs.

The biggest advantage of custom swimming pools is that they can be designed to be any size and depth, and shaped based on your preferences and for the available space. Adding hardscapes, lighting and our award-winning landscape designs create a truly amazing outdoor space. There are also different types of inground swimming pool edge options that allow for further aesthetic enhancements.

If you have been thinking about adding a swimming pool or rebuilding an outdated swimming pool, let us help you design the pool of your dreams. And if you like, we’ll also redesign all of the surrounding landscaping for a complete remodel of your outdoor space.

Pool Edge Options

Traditional Edge with Coping: Square, bull-nose or cantilevered.

Infinity Edge: Also called negative edge or vanishing edge and is typically on one side.

Zero Edge: The surface of the water is level with the surrounding pool decking.
